Default Problems w/ power seat/memory/pulling code

My driver side seat sticks on the rail and will not move any further. It seems to only stick on one of the rails. It will stick on one rail and the other will keep moving until it has stopped. I've pulled this code:
A6-SCM
B2605H

I hope its not the motor. And if it is could I use the passenger side one as my driver's seat or not because I have the memory option?

Thanks, Any help would be greatly appreciated.

SCM is the seat control module under your seat. Did you get water or moisture into it ?

The other code is "H" history.

Reset all your codes and see if any come back. You should see a "C" after the code to denote that it is current.

It is possible that I got water in it. I clear them about once a week and it keeps coming back. Never does it have a C in it though. Any simple fix or is this going to be $$?

Are you getting a "U" code with the SCM ? if so I would look at my grounds.

If you have wet carpet or a leak you probably have corrosion on some of the grounds or connectors.

The motor just sticks. I have a feeling if it were a ground it wouldn't function at all.

I would pull the seat and check it all out. Make sure everything is tight and the tracks are properly lubricated.
